From Terbutaline to Vagus Nerve S5mula5on – Treat Wheezing like a Pro! David Robinson, MD Joanne L. Oakes, MD Objec5ves: All That Wheezes • Discuss best evidence ED treatment op5ons for acute COPD vs. asthma exacerba5ons • Compare the u5lity of non-‐invasive ven5la5on for acute COPD vs. asthma exacerba5ons • Compare and contrast new vs. standard treatment op5ons for acute exacerba5ons presen5ng to the ED I have no financial or other rela5onship disclosures to report. Pa5ent Number One… • Cri5cal care room 1 • 6 year old boy • BMI 35, H/O severe uncontrolled asthma • Anxious, speaks in phrases • RR 40, poor air movement, SpO2 88% • Inspiratory and expiratory wheezes, subcostal and intercostal retrac5ons Pa5ent Number Two… Cri5cal care room 2 65 year old man Long term smoker “Can’t breathe”, new purulent sputum x 3 days, out of home O2 • Afebrile • RR 40, poor air movement, SpO2 88% • • • • There is one ICU bed • Who is sicker? • Intuba5on vs. Non-‐invasive ven5la5on? • Throw everything in “the kitchen sink” at both? What’s not new… • • • • β2-‐agonists Oral vs. IV steroids for acute exacerba5ons Racial, urban*, and rural healthcare dispari5es Wide prac5ce varia5on and guideline adherence Asthma • Only 2 completely new classes of drugs approved since the 1960s • Leukotriene receptor antagonists (LTRAs) 1997: Montelukast (Singulair)*, Zafirlukast (Accolate) • Recombinant humanized monoclonal an5body against IgE: Omalizumab (Xolair) • Neither of these classes are indicated for acute exacerba5ons • Inhaled cor5costeroids (ICS) and B-‐agonists remain the cornerstones of therapy with other medica5ons added on in “steps” Outpa5ent Asthma Management hnp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/ar5cle/pii/S0165614710000787 Some (Data-‐Driven) Thoughts to Consider: • Guideline use is proven to improve outcomes • Poor outpa5ent compliance cited in mul5ple studies • Outpa5ent noncompliance drives ED visits and hospitaliza5ons • Early administra5on of steroids (<60 minutes) reduces hospital admission rates for children with moderate and severe exacerba5on Bhogal, et al; Shan, et al; Papierniak et al; Edwards, et al Some (Data-‐Driven) Thoughts to Consider: • An5bio5cs: Not helpful unless acute infec5on • Ongoing studies regarding long term an5-‐inflammatory benefits for certain pa5ent subsets • Magnesium sulfate in asthma: • Children: IV improves pulmonary func5on and reduces number of hospital admissions • Adults: IV improves pulmonary func5on only • Nebulized appears to produce benefits for adults only Bhogal, et al; Shan, et al; Papierniak et al; Edwards, et al Why Use Guidelines at all?
